Guest guest Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Okay I have worked alot with my doctor and provided her with all the information on misophonia that I could get my hands on. I've listed previously the medications that I have tried and that have failed but here I will list the medicines that I have been prescribed that are helping ALOT. 1. paxil 30 mg daily- this is my newest medicine an wow I can say it really softens my response to the trigger sounds and it seems the longer I take it the better it is getting 2. Vicodin 5 mg as needed this seems to be the most effective treatment for me, when I take vicodin with some grapefruit juice it helps SO much I can actually tolerate the noises even though I still like to have some soft music on my iPhone going. My doctor agrees to use the vicodin sparingly to avoid tolerance and YES it can be highly addictive but my emotional pain from the triggers just as you all know is just as painful if not more than physical pain and for some reason vicodin works for me thank god. Last but not least I'm prescribed 2 mg Xanax as needed. So far this mix along with voluntary increased exposure with my medicine has helped so much that I no longer have to scratch my self or mimic the sound to gain relief. I'll continue to look for ways to improve my misophonia and I'm confident I will, if you would have told me 10 years ago when I was 14 and this all started that I would one day find some significant relief I wouldn't have believed it. Looking forward to future improvements btw my yahoo ID is sweetiebabexox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
